Rules for Snow Gear
Scott Becker
I wanted to remind families of the recess procedures regarding days with snow cover. To help maximize instructional time, students may dress out in snow boots and snow pants on Fridays to access areas of the playground other than the blacktop with snow cover. Teachers who are giving brain breaks during the day will use their discretion for allowing students to dress out in snow gear Monday through Thursday. Classroom teachers will communicate days in which students should bring snow gear.
When is Too Sick For School?
Your child has a runny nose or just a little cough, but no other symptoms.
Your child has not taken any fever reducing medicine for 24 hours and hasn't had a fever during that time.
Your child has not thrown up or had any diarrhea for 24 hours.
Keep them home if:
They have a temperature of 100 or higher.
They are throwing up or have diarrhea.
Their eyes are pink and crusty.
Call the doctor if:
They have a temperature higher then 100 degrees for two days or longer.
They are throwing up or having diarrhea longer than two days.
They have had the sniffles longer than a week or are not getting better.
They still have asthma symptoms after using their asthma medications.

The Gift of Time
When I talk to your children about what they appreciate most from friends and family, time is the most frequent response.
Each day we are all given twenty-four hours to use. We’re busy. Our children are busy. One way to stay connected with each other is to plan a special time together. Your life style may not allow for a weekly one on one time with each of your children. You may find it works better to plan weekly family times and monthly one on one “dates”.
Nothing tells children more clearly that they are just as important to us as our work, a doctor’s appointment, or other special events, than taking our time and making a gift of it to them.
By taking a walk, making a meal, or playing a game you can focus your love and attention on your child(ren). In the process you’ll lay a foundation of love and trust that will serve you all in years to come.
